Outdoors w/reloads

Post by DWD445 » Sat Sep 03, 2016 6:44 pm

Went to a nice outdoor range about 20min away. Shooting at 140yds. Tried out most of my new reloads. I was impressed w\357 mags and H110 powder !! Hit gong w/1st shot in DW15-2 8"!! Henry was a heavy hitter w/H110 also, I'm a little sore !! ;) Got some pics of the range from target & back. And a couple of vids I'll post when I can. Beautiful cool day and had a great time !!
One vid is Mike and my DW 445 6" the other is him ang his Rem 30-06. Mostly shot at metal targets.

Nice range, I like the way those shooting lanes are cut through the trees.

I stand a better chance getting a chunk of lead down that fairway than a golf ball....

I agree compeltely! One of the reasons I got rid of my golf clubs about a year ago. I would rather spend my money on ammo and reloading. :D

Stock open for now. I need glasses :lol: just readers have been ok till lately. But did ok, tried to spot w/Mikes scope, had some shadows so not that good. But I rang the bell a few times :D. VERY HAPPY W/ reloads, H110 is wickedness. Esp. the 357 mag rounds, wow. My Dan Wesson 357 8" never moves much, but dam it barked today !!! :lol: Mike had a Win 243 single, scoped... ding ding. 140yds is a fer piece. They have 270 also , scope for sure on that. Very nice range, clean, we were only ones on rifle range and pistol had 3-4 pairs later $15 hr.shoot anything but steel. We then went to GS near here, where I got my H012 and fondled some Henry's. All Weather and SS in 45-70. :) Huge store, lots of rifles.
